About Me

Welcome! Are you a beginning-advanced trumpet player looking to improve your skills? Whatever your goals may be, I am hoping that we can work together to help you reach your goals! My teaching experience includes 7 years of teaching and I am a licensed music teacher (K-12) in the state of Pennsylvania.

How I Teach

I believe in creating a creative and inclusive environment for all students.

My Teaching Philosophy

My teaching philosophy is pretty simple. I believe in teaching the student, not teaching the method to the student. Everyone has specific needs, goals, learning styles, and a “one size fits all” approach does not work well in my experience. Some students may feel like they are making progress with the one size fits all approach while others feel left behind. In my trumpet studio, it is my goal to treat everyone with respect, kindness, and do whatever I can to help them achieve their trumpet goals.
